White Bean Sausage and Kale Soup with Sauteed Leeks Recipe

Bright simple flavors, and on-hand ingredients make this light and healthy soup a great choice for busy days. It was my perfect lunch solution for a chilly and damp Spring day. Substitute your favorite sausage, use onions instead of leeks, or use homemade chicken or vegetable broth as substitutions. White bean sausage and kale soup has only 5 main ingredients and comes together in a snap! Enjoy!

Remove sausage from casing and brown in a little swirl of olive oil in a 2.5 quart pan.

Once browned, add sliced leek rounds to pan and saute until translucent.

Add chicken broth and bring to simmer.

Drain and rinse 1 can cannellini beans and add to pot.

Rinse and de-stem approximately 4-6 kale leaves (Approx. 3 cups). Chop kale into fine strips and then again crosswise. Add to pan.

Bring soup to a boil and taste for seasonings needed. Once kale is a nice bright green and wilted the soup is ready to serve. Enjoy!
